    Ring in the new year celebrating 2023 with some laughter! Happiness and laughs are meant to be shared, together! This seven-person team of friends is on a mission to create memorable experiences for everyone! Kick off the new year by spending time with your loved ones in Sedona for a lovely night out!

    Unauthorized Happiness (UH) intends to create a sacred bubble for intentional play for both members of the improv troupe and for the audience watching. The troupe performs on Tuesdays because the weekends shouldn’t get to have all of the fun. Sure, it’s a school night or work night. But, that’s the point! No talk of homework or jobs is allowed. Get out of the house, off of your phones and tablets and come have some laughs.

    The players of Unauthorized Happiness are Sedona and Cottonwood residents Bekah Hinds, Chuck Tyler, Alissa Tyler, Jonathan Bonner, Allyraa Creevay, Carlo Habash and Angie Arndt.

    The show will include fully-improvised comedy games performed by the troupe on stage, using family-friendly suggestions that the audience will shout out loud in order to get the scenes started. When you’re in the audience, don’t be shy! Why? Because at the end of the night, the troupe picks their favorite suggestion and awards that audience member with a special prize! Giving back to the community is one of the core values of the UH Team.

    The UH Team believes that, at our core, everyone requires happiness to thrive. Their mission is to bring their joy of laughter not only to audiences, but also to the community’s everyday lives by showing people that laughter is unapologetically necessary to the human experience. Laughter is the medicine that nourishes the spirit, calms us down and cheers us up. “I use my improv skills everyday in regular life”, says troupe member Carlo Habash. “It’s the gift of improv that strengthens a lot of my relationships in real life, with my friends and family. I’m so glad we get to bring it to the stage to show people how fun it is!” Habash says.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
